Bombing of Outer Heaven
01
The Outer Heaven Uprising reportedly ended with an earthquake that struck South Africa in 1995, but in truth Outer Heaven was destroyed by a massive aerial bombardment launched by multinational forces. After Solid Snake eliminated Outer Heaven's leader, Big Boss, NATO forces executed a pinpoint strike on Outer Heaven's nuclear weapons facility using bunker-busting bombs. There were even reports of nuclear blasts in the aftermath. Outer Heaven was wiped from the face of the earth with no survivors, either mercenary, resistance, or civilian. The truth was hidden from the media, and very few people ever learned of what really happened.
